THEY COMPLAINED TO THE ACTING US DEPUTY CHIEF OF MISSION
March 4 2013
"It is unfair to congratulate Serzh Sargsyan who has declared himself
president for the second time" Today a group of Armenian citizens
expressed their disagreement and discontent with US President Barak
Obama's congratulating Serzh Sargsyan in a letter addressed to the
US Ambassador to Armenia. "It is unfair to congratulate someone who
has been elected through a rigged election and who has declared
himself president for the second time, and the United States, as
well as other countries, which have congratulated Serzh Sargsyan,
impedes the democratization of the Armenian people," activist Tsovinar
Nazaryan said during the protest outside the embassy, after handing
their letter over to James Land, the acting US deputy chief of mission.
Publicist Zaruhi Hovhannisyan added: "Another rigged election has
taken place before everybody's eyes, and this is the second time the
same person has declared himself president. The congratulations of
all the democratic countries' high-ranking officials, presidents to
Serzh Sargsyan are disappointing to us, because the electoral fraud
that took place during the presidential election has been talked
about many times." In activist Artur Grigoryan's words, superpowers
influence the developments inside the Armenian state, but they are
guided not by Armenia's, but their own national interests. "The
people at the helm of our country are enmeshed in corruption to such
an extent that they couldn't change even if they wanted to. Society
is facing a dilemma what to do, how to behave in this situation...,
everything begins with elections; there is no institution of elections,
it is pointless to talk about democracy." The activists also showed
a red card to the embassy in protest. Details in the video Media can
